OBJECTIVE
Calycosin, a phytoestrogenic compound, has recently emerged as a promising antitumor drug. It has been shown that calycosin suppresses growth and induces apoptosis of breast cancer cells. However, the effect of calycosin on migration and invasion of breast cancer cells and the underlying
We previously reported that calycosin, a natural phytoestrogen structurally similar to estrogen, successfully triggered apoptosis of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer cell line, MCF-7. To better understand the antitumor activities of calycosin against breast cancer, besides MCF-7 cells,
BACKGROUND
Calycosin and formononetin are two main components of isoflavones. In our previous studies, we have respectively reported their antitumor activities on breast cancer cell MCF-7. To further investigate the feasibility of isoflavones in clinically treating breast carcinoma, here we
Calycosin is widely used as a natural active compound for its anti-oxidative and anti-inflammation activity. Recently, several studies have shown that calycosin can inhibit growth and induce apoptosis in human cancer cell lines; however, the mechanisms are not completely clarified yet. In this
Calycosin is a bioactive isoflavonoid of the medicinal plant Astragalus membranaceus that exhibits a wide range of pharmacological properties. In the present study, we have attempted to explore the anti-tumorigenic potential of calycosin in pancreatic Calycosin is reportedly evidenced with pharmacologically treating bone cells. However, the comprehensive anti-osteosarcoma (OS) mechanisms of calycosin have not been uncovered. By using a systemic method of network pharmacology, the present study aimed to reveal potential anti-OS biotargets and
Prior studies have suggested that a high intake of isoflavonoids is associated with a protective effect against hormone-related cancers, such as colorectal cancer (CRC). Calycosin, a main component of isoflavones, has been shown to suppress the growth of hormone-dependent tumors through an
Calycosin, a functional phytoestrogen isoflavone isolated from Radix astragali, has been shown to possess multiple pharmacological properties including anti-cancer activity. However, up to now, the anti-cancer effect and the related mechanism of calycosin on cervical cancer (CC) cells have not been
BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to elucidate the biological targets and pharmacological mechanisms for calycosin (CC) against colorectal cancer (CRC) through an approach of system pharmacology. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using a web-based platform, all CRC-causing genes were identified using a
BACKGROUND
Calycosin and genistein are the two main components of isoflavones. Previously, we reported that these compounds display antitumor activities in the breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and T47D. In the present study, we investigated the mechanism of action of calycosin and genistein, and their
Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among women, and the failure of normal apoptosis has been proved in the development of breast cancer. The phytoestrogen, calycosin, is extracted from Chinese medical herb Radix astragali. We recently reported that calycosin successfully stimulated
Calycosin, an isoflavonoid phytoestrogen, isolated from Radix Astragali, was reported to possess anti-tumor, anti-inflammation, and osteogenic properties, but its impact on osteoclast differentiation remains unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of calycosin on osteoclastogenesis induced
Both brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and microglia activation are involved in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Herein, we attempt to ascertain whether Calycosin, an isoflavonoid, protects against ischemic stroke by modulating the endogenous production of BDNF and/or the microglia
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone malignancy and often presents at an early age. Calycosin is a phytoestrogen isoflavone, which has previously been reported to inhibit tumor cell growth. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of calycosin on apoptosis of estrogen
Aim: Gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. In-depth research of precancerous lesions of gastric carcinoma (PLGC) with malignant transformation potential is a key measure to prevent the development of gastric
